Bala Shark

[keeton]

hey guys
my mum just rescued 2 bala sharks for our local P@H as they were in a 3/4gallon tank
they were quite pale, but dont most fish go pale when unhappy?
they are swimming at a 30-45 degree angle half the time and normal the rest of the time.
our water stats:
ph: 7
ammonia : 0
nitrite : 0
nitrate : 20
stocking: i dont know exact numbers as its my mums tank (just under 100 gallon)
panda cory
sterbai cory
2 bn plec
cardinals
dwalf gouramis
some khuli loach
cherry shrimp

thanks

They might have swim bladder if their swimming at an angle.

they have coloured up nicely now , must of been stress or the fact that the water from the shop had ammonia in it (1 on test kit)

seem happy now and are swimming normally will keep an eye on them
